Vehicle Overview

The 2014 Dodge Journey stays the course for this model year. The Journey is a two- or three-row crossover with front- or all-wheel drive. Its base engine/transmission combo is a 2.4-liter I-4 making 173 hp and 166 lb-ft of torque, paired with a four-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. This combo isn’t worth your time or money. The optional 3.6-liter V-6 with 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque is. Paired with a six-speed automatic, the Journey V-6 comes with your choice of front- or all-wheel drive.

The Dodge Journey’s 2011 updates
updates improved it dramatically. “John and Jane may not fully comprehend how the steering was recalibrated or how the suspension was stiffened, but the Journey’s revised innards will be the talk of the post-PTA meetings. The old Journey’s subpar materials and button after button on the center stack assaulted driver and passenger. The new model has been significantly improved: The smartly designed gauge cluster with Electronic Vehicle Information Center and vibrant 8.4-inch touch-screen display should more than draw in a few looky-loos,” we wrote during our First Test of the updated Journey.

Not much has changed for the 2014 Dodge Journey. The Journey Crew gets renamed the Journey Limited, and satellite radio is now an available extra across the board.

New for 2014

Heated leather seats, voice command navigation, and a rear-seat entertainment system are now available on the 2014 Journey Crew.
